DOOR STORIES – Joe is a storyteller. Here he will offer stories about the people he meets, and the communities found in the 92nd Wisconsin Assembly District.

POLICY and POLITICS – Joe believes there is a difference between public policy and political action. Public policies are created by governmental processes. They result in having an impact on our citizens. That impact may or may not be viewed as positive by all. But they become the community standard.

RANDOM THOUGHTS – In this space Joe will offer his ideas, beliefs, and values. Hopefully you will get to know him a bit. Joe has been clear on where he stands since the beginning of his campaign. He wants his constituents to know him. And, he does not want to be a candidate that speaks in sound bites.
